I want to install EndeavourOs on my PC with GRUB Legacy as primary OS (there’s already LinuxMint on a second partition as secondary OS).
When I boot from the USB which item should I choose (I don’t have nvidia drivers, only intel)? I only see voices that talk about UEFI or fallback mode…
If you want to install in Legacy mode, you must boot the ISO in Legacy mode. Then you can choose the open source option.
@pimpoli ,
If GRUB of Mint works fine you may select
lts kernel on screen #5 (you will have less kernel updates)
and No Bootloader at screen # 6
The downside of it that you have to run update-grub in Mint
In Mint
/etc/default/grub
the line below facilitates
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
update-grub
preserves the default os you want to run
Boot ISO in legacy mode… How?
No, I want that it’is the EO grub to manage the boot. Mint Grub cannot boot an Arch distro.
Either manually select that option from your BIOS boot menu or disable UEFI in your BIOS.
It probably can since we use Dracut but I haven’t tested it.
I’m using LMDE grub2 in UEFI mode for several EnOS systems at present.
